  • 1 Tbsp Sesame Oil
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Lemon Pepper Or Black Pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 2 Tangerines Peeled and split apart

Method
 

  1. Rinse the greens and set aside. In a separate bowl, add the Olive Oil, Sesame Oil, Salt, Lemon Pepper, Garlic Powder, and a squeeze of the tangerines. Use a fork to combine by whisking.
  2. This is a good time to taste the dressing to see if you need to add anything. Drizzle the tangy dressing on top of the salad. Add the shredded chicken and stir the salad, dressing and chicken together.
  3. Add the raisins, cranberries, tangerines, seeds, and crumbled crackers on top. Serve with whole crackers. Enjoy!
